The fishermen went out early in the morning, as usual: an old wooden canoe, a torn net. They had been working in the same spot for over ten years. Everything seemed normal. One of the men cast the net a bit farther, closer to the bend near the reeds, where people said there were a lot of fish this season.

About half an hour passed. Some of them had already started putting the catch into the box when one fisherman noticed something strange in the water. Something had gotten caught on the edge of the net — streamlined, soft, wrapped in old cloth. At first glance, it looked like a sack of mud or trash. He pulled it in, and the fabric stretched tight, revealing the shape of something round and heavy. Silence fell over the boat. The others stood up and watched as he slowly lifted the object from the water.

Through the wet cloth, facial features became visible — a human face. Everyone recoiled in shock.

— That’s… that’s a head… — whispered one of the fishermen.

They didn’t touch anything. They called the police, and within an hour, the shore was swarming with officers. It turned out that the victim was a man who had gone missing a few weeks earlier.

He was from the neighboring village. The investigation revealed that he had been murdered with extreme brutality and dismembered. The rest of his body parts were later found in different places along the river.

This discovery became the key to a high-profile case: a local resident, long distrusted by others, turned out to be involved in the crime.

He was arrested, and the investigation uncovered two other similar disappearances that had previously been considered unrelated.

The fishermen didn’t return to the water for a long time. For them, the word “catch” would never mean the same again.
